Hi,
Anyone have any experience of mounting disks formatted as UFS? I only need read
capability, so I can get some data off the disk, but our efforts to mount the
thing were defeated here on Friday.
We have a Sparc Ultra 5 box here which has fallen foul of the 'IDPROM contents
are invalid' fault

I've got a spare Ultra 5 you can borrow... unfortunately I'm in Belgium until

You can get round the idprom issue with some gnarly forth mkp OpenBoot Prom
commands:

If the drive can be read, e.g. sudo dd if=/dev/sdb | od -c | less, but
the partitions not identified
Just realised that Justin's earlier post was sent to me and only copied
to the LUG; when I replied of course it only went to him.
My other post won't make sense without this one.

Hi,
It's the pub meet tonight at The Broadway, 8pm-ish. For those that
haven't been before look out for a clutch of laptops or Terry's stuffed
penguin.
